About Kimberly
Kimberly DePue is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship struggles. She brings 18 years of clinical experience and a practical, down-to-earth style to sessions. Kimberly speaks English and is based in North Carolina.
She sees how trauma and relationship problems shape thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Those experiences can make people cope in ways that stop working over time. Kimberly focuses on increasing self-awareness so clients can notice patterns and try different, healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.
How Kimberly works
Her approach is warm and non-judgmental. She guides people through intense emotions and offers steady support during difficult moments. The goal is to help clients build useful skills that reduce shame, isolation, and self-doubt while improving overall wellbeing.
Kimberly pays attention to how grief, guilt, addiction, loneliness, and fear affect daily life. She helps people repair their relationship with themselves, and if a client chooses, repair some relationships with others. Sessions include talking through feelings and learning practical tools to handle stress and social anxiety.
Clients can expect clear, straightforward guidance and a focus on real-life change. Kimberly combines clinical experience with a genuine, human approach so people feel understood while they work toward better coping and greater clarity about their life purpose.

Evidence-based approaches and online sessions
Kimberly uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding reactions to trauma and repairing relationships with self. One common approach she employs helps people track how past hurt shows up in daily life and in relationships, then teaches skills to manage intense emotions and reduce avoidance. This method supports those coping with trauma, addiction-related behaviors, anxiety, and shame.A second approach emphasizes increasing self-awareness through guided reflection and practical exercises. Clients learn to notice unhelpful patterns, try alternative responses, and rebuild trust in themselves. This approach is helpful for low self-esteem, loneliness, and finding clearer life purpose.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kimberly works with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most useful in sessions. Together they try techniques, see what helps, and adjust the plan as needed to match the client’s needs.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow a face-to-face experience, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These formats make it easier to fit care into a busy life while keeping therapy practical and consistent.
